Password Manager's suggested passwords shows as leaked

I am using the latest Dev version on Windows 11.

On changing the new passwords using Edge's suggested strong passwords, Password Manager highlights these latest passwords as Leaked, Being used in 1 another location/app after changing them.

Seems like a bug.

    Sometimes strong passwords might get leaked.
    Try change password and see if the problem persist.

      It is happening right after applying the new password manager's password.

      How can it get leaked immediately?

      There is a bug in Dev channel version.

        It will check it with the cloud meaning the password might have been leaked and when you generate password it check and it has been leaked.
        However, as it is right away or when you change password, it will be appeared , then it is a bug, so make sure report it using the Feedback option.
